10. King speaks of cashing a check that had insufficient funds. King makes us think about the wrongs taht have been done to colored people. He makes you think of the literal meaning of times and how its almost like he took the past to predict the future. It seems as though he was giving America a heads up off what was going to happen in the new millenium. He also referrs to the wrongs of wanting cash, the "freedom" check. Then going to cash it but it has insufficient funds meaning they didnt get the freedoms promised.

1. Kings dream was not only freedom for all but also to have equality amongst everyone. Though he was speaking as the voice of African Americans he also made it clear that he not only wanted a better life for the fellow people but also those of future generations and for everyone all around. He fought as a peace activist. However his great speech seemed to touch many peoples hearts, which is what it was meant for. It was meant to make people realize how they should want to live. His speech gave hope for people to also be brave. Peace was the main idea of his speech and was also the way that he wanted future people to live. He wanted what was promised for the people of America originally when the Declaration of Independence was signed. All his of his words were from sources such as the Bible and Gettysburg Address, to prove his words to be correct for what he was saying. He also wanted everyone to act together as one as THE United States.

2. Segregation, Discrimination, Stealing freedoms and rights from Negroes.

3.Having the rights to Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. However many people would take the American Dream to mean freedom and happines and riches and wealth. Many foreigners come to pursue the riches and fame or riches or even just more money then what they were getting in their country.

4. These are specific areas where acts of racial discrimination and segregation have happened. They could also be places where civil wrongs have been done such as a lynching. these are also southern areas where segregation was most popular.

5. Yes, because he was a man who fought for equal rights and he made it so plain without saying that the white man has done us wrong. He made that as an underlying meaning while keeping in mind his audience and who they are and the possible effects of him saying something wrong or racially corrupting. His speech gave many people faith that "We Shall Overcome Someday".

1.The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.

2a. I believe that everyone has a conscience even if people does not like a person because of their skin color, I believe that deep inside themselves they still don't want any brutal pain and harm to come to that person. The KKK did many horrible things to southern blacks, which may have sparked the conscience of the rest of the country

2b.

3. I believe that todays skinheads are just as dangerous if not more dangerous than back in history. Skinheads today are not talked about and brought out in the public eye as much as it was back then, therefore, with this known by them, they feel like they can get away with anything, and feel that they are more superior to any other person. So yes, they are dangerous, if not more.

4. I believe that Kings' dream has been accomplished, and stepped on at the same time. You have African Americans and Caucasians getting along with each other, however Martin Luther King, as well as many other civil rights activists did not give there lives so that we could become thugs, gangsters, drug dealers, and dropouts. It makes me furious when I see thugs out on the street, and fighting, and killing each other. They don't realize the opportunity that they have to be somebody in this world. Its basically as if they don't even realize, or care that in the past it was almost impossible for black man, and especially a black woman, to get a propper education to make something with their lives, and to see them throw that away for drugs and "the thug life" is degrating not only to Martin Luther King, but to themselves.

What remains to be accomplished is the abolishment of racism. Although it may be something that will never be gone, it still is a need for this country. Also, we need to get people who does not want education within their lives, and doesn't strive to be something in this world, in some kind of system, because they make it that much harder for people who do try to be something and contribute to society. A perfect example is school. How you have the class clowns, and the diligent working students. The diligent working students could learn so much more if it wasn't for the class clowns interupting the class all the time.
